Movies that feel likeEnforcement (2020)

The exact details of what took place while Talib Ben Hassi was in police custody remain unclear. Police officers Jens and Mike are on routine patrol in Svalegården's ghetto when news of Talib's death comes in over the radio, igniting uncontrollable, pent-up rage in the ghetto's youth, who lust for revenge. Suddenly, the two officers find themselves fair game and must fight tooth and claw to find a way out.

If you loved Enforcement, the closest films we have are Chocolate (2008), Law of Tehran (2019) and The Plagues of Breslau (2018). All three share Enforcement's kinetic and gritty feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Brother 2 (2000).
